About Me |
|
| Dirk Markham grew up in Aboyne, a village in "Royal" Deeside in the north east of Scotland (an hour inland from Aberdeen). Dirk has been making experimental recordings and teaching himself every intrument he can get his hands on since his years studying mental philosophy at Edinburgh in the late 90s. His music is mainly instrumental although occaisonally the odd folk-rock song pops up out of nowhere. Dirk has been residing in Berlin for the last two years where he works for the labels monika enterprise and international dj gigolos. Life for Dirk is a musical journey on which he is constantly searching for new sounds.
Dirk's recent works include tracks on Ryan Van Winkels album "I hate myself, i'm a genius, i ruin everything, im so lonely" and a mini-album of Christmas songs called "advent". Dirk is currently working on Psycho-acoustic scultptures Vol. 3 and about to release "Post-Listening" which he did with Forest's Urban Exploration Society.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 "Water Ice Final Letterbox" video by Cameron Duguid: "Parochial" soundtrack taken from Psycho-Acoustic Sculptures Vol. 3 And you can also hear that track on the new Digital Kranky compilation Kraeka7: The Hemulens environmental-techno electro-trash classic "Park and Ride" is now also available on the Forest Ten Inch: Hear the tunes here: Forest Records |
